Aylin wriggled in her sleep as she watched the darkness clouding her eyes. Chilling winds blew past and she found herself in front of her family members' graves. Although they were dead, she could still see their souls floating in the air as they smiled at her.

"Sister Aylin," Zeev's voice made her choke on her tears and she stood up, wishing to hold her brother's hand. But the lad moved away from her, making her frown lightly.

"Sister Aylin, please do not cry," Siena said as her eyes welled up in tears. She resembled an angel in her white gown who had descended down from the sky just to wipe her tears and ease her off her miseries. Though her eyes were red and teary, Siena was still smiling at her and just her loving face broke Aylin's heart.

"Please come back to me." She muttered as she tried to catch her siblings. But all she caught was air and Aylin's face lost its color as she stared at the three people who were looking at her in sadness.

"Aylin, child. Please take care."

"No, no, no, Aunt Martha." Aylin started to weep loudly, not caring about herself or anyone else. She did not even consider anyone chancing upon her in such a dire and unpleasant situation. She wanted to stop her siblings and aunt from leaving her all alone in the frightening world.

"You cannot leave me all alone. Did you not promise me that you would stay with me always, Aunt Martha?" Aylin cried while the old woman wiped her tears.

"Was it all a lie? Was it all your deception, Aunt Martha?" Aylin shouted, her hair dancing widely due to the cold breeze. She looked extremely pitiful, broken and helpless.

"Did you intend to leave me too just like Father and Mother?" Aylin yelled in despair, her nose turning red after crying for a long time in the cold night. Even her face was turning sickly pale slowly, resembling the color of snow. 

Yet, she did not care. She stood straight. But from behind, she looked desperate and lonely as she continued to wail.

"Please do not cry, Sister Aylin." Siena tried to comfort her. But in vain. "We will always be with you."

"Yes, Sister. We will always be with you." Zeev nodded. Despite him being less articulate about his feelings, Aylin could sense his love and concern for her. 

"Please do not go. Please." Aylin lost all her strength and she fell to the ground the next instant. She was exhausted, emotionally and physically. She did not even have the strength to cry as she begged her family members to stay with her.

"We will have to go, Aylin. Please forgive me for not keeping my promise." Her aunt tried to caress her face. But she could not even touch her. With a sigh, she held Zeev and Siena's hands, who were smiling at her in sorrow.

"Goodbye, sister. We will always love you." Zeev's face was unreadable and he turned his head away from her.

"I love you, Sister Aylin." Siena wailed and tried to wriggle her way out of her aunt's hold. But she could not escape even after trying hard and she eventually broke down just like her sister.

"Please take care, Aylin. Be strong and happy." Her aunt spoke her last words before the three people vanished into thin air, leaving her all alone in the cold graveyard.

Aylin did not even have the time to comprehend what had happened when she found herself facing a man who had his face covered with a black mask. She could only see his obsidian orbs and they were filled with malice and bloodthirsty. A chill went down her spine when she saw him and Aylin subconsciously took a step back.

Even though she could not make out his expression, she could sense him to be smiling behind his mask. It was impossible to ignore the menacing aura around him. The man smiled when she took a step away from him. It was as though he was feeding on her fear, relishing in the feel of having the power over such a formidable woman.

Aylin watched him for a moment before her fear was replaced by alarm. "Who are you?" Her tone was stern and commanding and the man shook his head as though he was mocking her.

"You are asking me the wrong question, Aylin. You should ask me what I did." He chided gently. Yet, Aylin felt herself trembling after listening to him.

"How do you know me?"

"Oh, I know everything about you, Aylin. I have had my eyes on you all these years. I must say you are quite wonderful." The man took a deep breath and Aylin had the sudden urge to run away from him. His mere action made her feel repulsive. It was as though he was taking a sniff of her as he breathed right next to her.

"Who are you?" Aylin stood still, her curiosity now piqued and her interest to find out about the man overshadowed her desire to leave the place.

"I have told you that is a wrong question, Aylin. You must ask me what I have done." He repeated his words and Aylin's brows furrowed. But she stayed silent.

"Do you not wish to know who killed your beloved family members?"

Aylin's eyes widened and she stared at him in disbelief. She was too in shock to speak a word at this moment.

"Do you not wish to know how I killed your dear ones?" He continued, a strange gleam passing through his eyes that did not go unnoticed by Aylin.

"Why did you kill them?" She spat, her eyes blazing with fury and intense hatred, concealing her fear.

"Ah, that is a question I would like to answer when I meet you in person. Do not worry. You will get all your answers. Just remember that I have my eyes on you always and..." He stopped speaking as he stared at her frightened yet alluring face.

"Any person who you love will meet the same fate.. Just think carefully from now on or else my sword is more than willing to take down its next prey."
